A transformational journey into the American Southwest
to visit ancient sacred sites of the prehistoric Puebloan Peoples (Anasazi), to explore ruins and ancestral symbols that are
expressions
of an ancient world view, a view which embodies an integrated and cohesive
system of cosmology, myths, mysticism and prophecy. This body of
knowledge will be compared and contrasted with other global views to illustrate
its pattern of universal knowledge and wisdom, and its efficacy in our
lives. We will explore the nature of Earth Energies, and, through
journeying deeper into 
ourselves,
learn how we might walk closer with them. We will have the opportunity
to learn connectedness to the Sacred through the expressive form of music,
using simple instruments of Native American design, such as flute, drum,
or rattle, in steps designed to open our awareness to a deeper level of
knowing. And we will learn a basic understanding of the nature of
sound and its healing mechanism on our body, soul, and spirit.
With a background in sociology, history and science, Michael Claypool has lived in the American Southwest since 1981, studying with Hopi Indian Elders, and other Native American teachers, focusing on their cosmology, myths, and legends. He has a deep understanding of the Puebloan peoples, and their world view, and has a keen ability to integrate their stories, ethics, prophecies and culture into relevance for contemporary societies.
Zacciah Blackburn has studied the nature of mysticism, focusing on sound and its healing and transformative powers, since 1973. He has a deep and innate ability to awaken to, and help others discern and integrate the energies of Creation around and within us. He is a flutemaker, musician, educator, and sound healer living in Vermont with his two children.
